PLANOCOLOR VENETICO

Brilliant white versatile decorative compound, based on very fine graded sand

Microcement coating in the form of one-component brilliant white powder. It is particularly fine-grained with a smooth and slightly glossy finish. It is mixed only with water and NOVACOLOR DESIGN A/V pigments in liquid form in order to achieve shades of the relevant color chart or with NOVACOLOR OXIDE pigments in powder form in order to create an “abstract art” style. It is suitable for creating a ‘Venetian plaster’ texture on walls and ceilings, indoors and outdoors, as well as in wet areas such as bathrooms. It is applied at a thickness of 1 – 2mm for each layer in a flat, dry and properly primed or waterproofed substrate of plaster, plaster board, cement board, smooth concrete.

Consumption: Approximately 1 kg/m²/mm of thickness
Package: Paper bags 20 kg, Plastic bags 5 kg

Description

  • PLANOCOLOR VENETICO microcement coating is suitable for:
    • creating decorative microcement coatings with very smooth finish
    • applications in various substrates such as:
        • concrete, cement screed mortars
        • renders and masonry mortars
        • cement and gypsum boards (with appropriate primer)
  • Form: powder
  • Compressive strength: ≥ 6 N/mm²
  • Adhesion: ≥ 1,0 N/mm²
  • POT life: 45 - 60 minutes
  • Application temperature: from +5°C up to +35°C

Substrate preparation:

Cement based substrates must be compact, without cracks, free of dust, salts, grease and any other materials that could reduce adhesion of PLANOCOLOR VENETICO to them. Concrete substrates should be mechanically prepared, for example by grinding, in order to achieve a uniform surface of open porosity without protruding edged. For gypsum based substrates, it is necessary to prime the substrate with NOVAPRIMER. Non-absorbent substrates are recommended to be primed with SC ELASTIC. For more information, please refer to the relative Technical Data Sheets of the products.

Preparation of the mix:

Mix the PLANOCOLOR VENETICO bag (20 kg) with 7.0 - 8.0 liters of clean water with a low-speed electric mixer (500 rpm) for at least 3 - 5 minutes. Mixing should take place until the mixture is completely uniform and free of lumps. It is recommended to mix the pigment first with water. To achieve the shade of the PLANOCOLOR color chart, a NOVACOLOR DESIGN A/V pigment is mixed with every 5 kg PLANOCOLOR VENETICO. The product is ready for use. The mixture has approximately one hour of pot life.

Application of the mix:

The mix is applied with a trowel in one or more layers at a total thickness not exceeding 3 mm, with a maximum per coat thickness of 1 mm. The waiting time between layers must be 2 - 3 hours depending on the temperature and the humidity of the environment.

Recommendations:

  • Do not apply when substrate and ambient temperatures are below +5°C and higher than +35°C
  • Do not apply upon metal or wood or surfaces such as polyurethane, acrylic, paints and substrates subjected to big movements
  • Do not apply upon PVC membranes, bituminous membranes and other materials that polymerize in the long run
  • Do not apply upon loose substrates or substrates with insufficient cure
  • Do not apply upon non-absorbent substrates without proper preparation
  • Do not cover existing expansion joints of the substrate
  • Do not apply during direct sunlight and/or strong wind presence
  • Do not exceed the recommended quantity of the mixing water
  • Protect from rain or frost the first 24 hours
  • Do not add cement, gypsum, lime or other additives that might affect the properties of the mortar
  • Application to be performed by professional users

Cleaning:

Buckets, tools, coatings etc. can be cleaned with water as long as the mix is still fresh. Once dried cleaning can be done only by mechanical means.
